Here’s a brief “Barnyard” snippet of the Geese. They really are the Kings of the Barnyard, keeping everyone in line and tolerating the Goats, whom they suspect could “whip their butts” if they wanted to. It’s an organic pattern of dominance. If you are interested in following this pattern into the social fabric, here is a link to a take on it.
Happy Homesteading,

Here are the six ducks a year later. They love their pond.
Now that they aren’t laying eggs anymore, the Geese (Tululah, Lucy, Bruce, and baby Silly) are getting on much better with the ducks. They are allowed in the pond area once again. And things have been quiet. They also range together in the East Pasture. Silly has gotten so big that we can hardly tell which goose is her from a distance…they grow up so fast!
